A 94-year-old-woman showed that enjoying some good old fashioned summertime fun isn’t exclusive to the young. Staff at her senior living community surprised residents with a makeshift slip ‘n slide, and when they posted a video of the lady sliding down, it became an internet sensation.
Millie Uphold is the 94-year-old resident at Oaks at Northpointe in Zanesville, Ohio, who suggested they organize a slip ‘n slide event for their senior health and fitness day in June 2019. “She actually wanted to go parasailing,” Jacqueline Altier, executive director at the Oaks, explained, according to Good Morning America. “But we thought she meant slip-and-sliding, so that’s why we put it together.”
